We study the propagation of wavepackets along weakly curved interfaces between topologically distinct media. Our Hamiltonian is an adiabatic modulation of Dirac operators omnipresent in the topological insulators literature. Using explicit formulas for straight edges, we construct a family of solutions that propagates, for long times, unidirectionally and dispersion-free along the curved edge. We illustrate our results through various numerical simulations.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the propagation of topological currents along magnetic interfaces (also known as magnetic walls) of a two-dimensional material. We consider tight-binding magnetic models associated to generic magnetic multi-interfaces and describe the K-theoretical setting in which a bulk-interface duality can be derived. Then, the (trivial) case of a localized magnetic field and the (non trivial) case of the Iwatsuka magnetic field are considered in full detail. This is a pedagogical preparatory work that aims to anticipate the study of more complicated multi-interface magnetic systems.
We prove the existence of ground state in a multidimensional nonlinear Schrodinger model of paraxial beam propagation in isotropic local media with saturable nonlinearity. Such ground states exist in the form of bright counterpropagating solitons. From the proof, a general threshold condition on the beam coupling constant for the existence of such fundamental solitons follows.
We study the behavior of the soliton solutions of the equation i((partial{psi})/(partialt))=-(1/(2m)){Delta}{psi}+(1/2)W_{{epsilon}}({psi})+V(x){psi} where W_{{epsilon}} is a suitable nonlinear term which is singular for {epsilon}=0. We use the strong nonlinearity to obtain results on existence, shape, stability and dynamics of the soliton. The main result of this paper (Theorem 1) shows that for {epsilon}to0 the orbit of our soliton approaches the orbit of a classical particle in a potential V(x).
We consider the Nelson model on some static space-times and investigate the problem of absence of a ground state. Nelson models with variable coefficients arise when one replaces in the usual Nelson model the flat Minkowski metric by a static metric, allowing also the boson mass to depend on position. We investigate the absence of a ground state of the Hamiltonian in the presence of the infrared problem, i.e. assuming that the boson mass $m(x)$ tends to $0$ at spatial infinity. Using path space techniques, we show that if $m(x)leq C |x|^{-mu}$ at infinity for some $C>0$ and $mu>1$ then the Nelson Hamiltonian has no ground state.
Given a simply connected manifold M such that its cochain algebra, C^star(M), is a pure Sullivan dga, this paper considers curved deformations of the algebra C_star({Omega}M) and consider when the category of curved modules over these algebras becomes fully dualizable. For simple manifolds, like products of spheres, we are able to give an explicit criterion for when the resulting category of curved modules is smooth, proper and CY and thus gives rise to a TQFT. We give Floer theoretic interpretations of these theories for projective spaces and their products, which involve defining a Fukaya category which counts holomorphic disks with prescribed tangencies to a divisor.
